Joe McKnight's 107-yard score Sunday night -- the longest play in franchise history -- was the Jets' 15th kickoff return for a touchdown since special teams coordinator Mike Westhoff joined them in 2001. McKnight also became the seventh different player to run back a kickoff for a TD in Westhoff's tenure. Leon Washington (4), Justin Miller (3), Brad Smith (3), Chad Morton (2), Jerricho Cotchery and Jonathan Carter also did it.
